Pre-treatment Solution Safety Precautions
If you are printing with White ink (White Edition), pre-treatment solution must be applied to the T-shirt.
Observe these precautions when applying the pre-treatment solution:
• Always wear protective eye wear and gloves when applying the pre-treatment solution and make sure
the area is well-ventilated. If pre-treatment solution comes in contact with your skin or enters your
eyes or mouth, immediately take the following actions:
• If you get pre-treatment solution on your skin, immediately wash it off using soap and water. Consult
a physician if your skin is irritated or discolored.
• If pre-treatment solution gets in your eyes, rinse immediately with water. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in bloodshot eyes or mild inflammation. If problems persist, consult a
physician.
• If pre-treatment solution gets in your mouth, consult a physician immediately. If swallowed, do not
induce vomiting and consult a physician immediately. If vomiting is induced, solution may get caught
in the trachea which can be dangerous.
• Store the pre-treatment solution out of the reach of children.
• After working with the pre-treatment solution, wash your hands thoroughly.
• Prepare only the amount of pre-treatment solution required for the current print job, or it may harden.
• Do not store the pre-treatment solution in high or freezing temperatures.
• Store the pre-treatment solution at room temperature and away from direct sunlight.
